Chapter 31: The Truth
He curled his lips and looked at her, "What do you say?"
"Not sure!" Lu Xiaoman lowered his head and fiddled with his nails.
Xiao Heng was amused by her uncertainty.
"What are you not sure about? Are you not sure that I like you, or are you not sure that you like me?"
"I'm sure I don't like you myself. ”
"Are you in such a hurry to clear up your relationship with me because you have someone you like?" Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows, deliberately teasing her.
"Someone you like?" Lu Xiaoman unconsciously appeared in his mind Su Yan's appearance, the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of arc, I don't know whether to smile or laugh at himself.
Xiao Heng saw her thoughtful appearance, and seemed to understand something, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
Don't feel psychologically burdened, I just think that you are different from those worldly girls I have seen, and I just want to be friends with you, I Xiao Heng will not easily like a girl. ”
"Really. Lu Xiaoman jumped up with joy, the embarrassment and discomfort just now were fleeting, and his heart was as light as letting go of a thousand catties of burden. ”
Xiao Heng looked at her happy appearance, and felt an indescribable loss in his heart.
"This guy is too unkind, knowing that he doesn't like her, he is so happy. He muttered to himself.
"I came to pick you up today to ask you for a favor!"
"What's busy?" Lu Xiaoman asked
"My mom is in a bad mood these days, she is very happy every time she sees you, you go and accompany her. Xiao Heng said.
"What's wrong with Auntie?" Lu Xiaoman asked with concern.
"My mother actually has a son, but some time ago there was an accident, and now I haven't woken up, my mother has been grieving, although in front of me, my mother tried her best to show that she was happy, but every time there was no one, she was always alone to wipe her tears. ”
"The day you went to my house, it seemed like the happiest day Mom had these days. So if you have time, spend more time with her, and I can pay her as long as I can make her happy. Xiao Heng said, his face gloomy.
"What do you say? Auntie treats me so well, am I the kind of person who sees money?"
Lu Xiaoman finally understood why her aunt had tears in her eyes when she talked about her other son that day.
"Are you saying that Auntie also has a son? Aren't he brothers with you?" Lu Xiaoman listened to Xiao Heng's tone, his younger brother didn't seem to belong to their family, Lu Xiaoman was a little confused.
"Actually, I'm not my mother's biological son. Xiao Heng said.
"But your relationship seems so good. Lu Xiaoman remembered that when he was at his house that day, the family was happy, and he couldn't imagine that this was the case.
"When I was ten years old, my biological mother passed away due to illness, and at that time, I couldn't accept such a cruel truth, locked myself at home, and gradually became autistic. Dad was so busy with work that he couldn't take care of me at all. ”
"Later, my father invited an aunt to take care of me, she was very gentle, very kind, despite all the difficulties I made to her, she was still very patient to guide me, even more patient than my own mother, she took me to many places, I gradually came out of the haze, became cheerful, and gradually relied on her. ”
"Because of her, my father can work with peace of mind, and our family's business is getting bigger and bigger, her kindness and understanding also made my father fall in love with her unconsciously, and in my expectation she finally became my mother, for so many years, she has always treated me as my own son, and I have never regarded her as my stepmother. ”
"Later, my father told me that my mother had a failed marriage, and she had a son, and he wanted to take my mother's son over and live with us, but I was afraid that he would take away my mother's love again, so I insisted on not agreeing. Over the years, my mother has always missed him very much and has been silently paying attention to him, but my mother is afraid that I will be left out, and my father is not allowed to mention the matter of taking his son over. ”
"Now that I'm grown up, looking at my mother's dedication to me and this family, I also began to feel guilty, and I can understand her distress, I planned to wait for my father to arrange a good show this year, and let my mother go back to her son to live with us, but I didn't expect that before that day, he had an accident. Xiao Heng said, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
"A good show, what kind of play?" Lu Xiaoman was a little confused.
